Abstract

Fe3O4 nanopillars with remarkably high uniformity and crystallinity are grown on (100)-oriented magnesium aluminate substrates by pulsed laser deposition with a simple anodic-aluminum-oxide template method. Compared with Fe3O4 full film, the nanopillars exhibit higher in-plane magnetic saturation field and lower out-of-plane saturation field. The angular-dependent ferromagnetic resonance, investigated by electron spin resonance spectroscopy, confirms the shape-induced anisotropy change in Fe3O4 nanopillars. High Gilbert damping parameter of 0.23 is obtained by measuring the resonance field at different microwave frequencies.
